I think that Jim's Camaro is way cool. I also think that it's great that he's held onto it all of these years.

I especially like the last shot of the group. Hmmm...I wonder why?

Thanks for sharing your Camaro with us Jim!

[ORIGLS6]

Yeah, what he said. Smoke 'em if you got 'em.

Thank you all for the Kind comments. It seems the folks around here have the bar set high for standards and it is neat to hear positive comments. I have made some errors during the resto and they are there, but I am slow to correct.
While I was way to young to own this as a new car it is ammazing to fathom that it has been 24+ years.
Wierd when you see someone from your youth and they can not remember your name but recall you as the Guy with the RED Camaro,,,,

The Burnout! Fathers day if I remember correctly, Now thoses are BF goodrich silvertown 3/8" F70-14 red stripe tires going up in a CLOUD
Tires purchased in 1985. No internet to find parts then,,,,,remember It seemed the modified CARS outnumbers the stock ones 3 to 1 back then.

Now I need to figure out how to post a video,,,

Thanks again.

(169INDY),,,,but that's another story,,,,,,

is the grille the original one to the car... there is a research topic on the CRG site relating to the chrome bar 68 RS grilles... if it is original to the car you may be able to provide some valuable info...
